About Lamb's Machine Works

For nearly 50 years, Lamb’s Machine Works has been the partner that industries trust when their operations depend on it. We’re proud to serve everyone from local family-owned businesses to Fortune 500 corporations, keeping their critical machinery running by providing expert repairs, precision machining, preventive maintenance, and rapid emergency response when downtime isn’t an option.

Our story began with founder Jimmy Lamb, who started as a small machine shop supporting the oil and gas industry right here in Memphis TN. As local customers came to rely on Jimmy’s precision machining expertise, he saw an opportunity to expand—both into new industries and into comprehensive machinery repair, where his machining capabilities gave us a distinct advantage in maintaining the tight tolerances and clearances industrial equipment demands.

Today, we’ve grown into a trusted regional partner serving customers across a 6-hour radius of Memphis, supporting diverse industries including chemical manufacturing, meat & poultry processing, food & beverage production, and steel & iron fabrication. While we’ve expanded our reach and capabilities over the decades, we’ve never lost sight of what made us successful: treating every customer’s downtime as our own emergency and delivering the precision craftsmanship that keeps operations moving forward.
